art time minimum wage is also more in Alberta than any other province in Canada. Taxes are also the lowest among all other provinces.Rental apartments are also cheaper in this province.

University of Alberta is ranked 4 all over Canada for their education and student services. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Weather here is also not that bad and people can adjust easily in this location. Part time minimum wage is also more in Alberta than any other province in Canada. Taxes are also the lowest among all other provinces. University provides ample opportunities to network and meet industry professionals to build a good relationship which might help students find a job.

Yes, free WiFi/heat/water/electricity are included. My rental is about 500CAD per month (again, differs year by year). But laundry is not free, it's 2.00CAD for washing and 1.75 for drying. There are lots of restaurants nearby, so you can easily find your favorite food if you don't want to cook.

It's a Canadian university with low tuition costs -- only about 25,000 CAD per year! Also, its admission rate is not as low as University of British Columbia and University of Toronto, but it has a strong CS department, particularly in Reinforcement Learning Theory.

I lived on campus for the first year and I would recommend living there for the first year because that way you'll make a lot of friends and get to know a lot of people. Cost is about $10,000 to $17,000.

Because it is ranked among the top 10 universities in the world for Artificial Intelligence.

Yes, my cost in lister was $8770 for 8 months incl food, utilities, wifi, gym, etc. for a double room with shared washrooms. However, this would have increased now so it's best to check the prices in-residence services website.

This is one of Canada's best universities with a good world ranking and very low tuition and living costs compared to other universities.

I lived on campus in my first year. The cost depends upon which building you are in, and if you have a double or a single room. The infrastructure is good, although some maintenance goes on regularly. There are gym facilities, coffee shop, study rooms, libraries, and lounges within the dorms. All the buildings are connected through tunnels, so you don't have to go outside again and again. There are floor meetings, regular check-ins, and lots of events all around the year.

There were many reasons for choosing this university. The University of Alberta comes in the top 100 universities of the world for my major. It isn't in a major city, so the cost of living is comparably lower. This university also has a reputation for helping students in all ways.

I would surely recommend Lister Residence for the first year. That's something one can never experience after that. I have lifetime memories attached with the Lister Residence. It is mainly for the first year students only. There are 5 towers with different prices but the meal plan is mandatory for each student living in residence. And Believe me, it's worth it. After first year, I would prefer living off campus. Maybe near the university or near any lrt station.

Unity in Diversity was the foremost reason of choosing this university. Completing higher education in India is not a big deal, but most of the students do not know what to choose as their profession. U of A has the first year as qualifying year. It gives us an opportunity to understand the subjects in depth and that makes more clear about the specific field. I was pretty sure about the computing field but the grades and understanding in the MATLAB (which I did for the first time) made it more clear that I was right ! I belong to a small pilgrimage place, Dakor from Kheda district in Gujarat. Studying in the only English school in whole district, I got ample of opportunities in every field because of the higher illiteracy rates around my hometown. I am glad that I am here with the grace of God and surely, the dedication and hard work of my parents.

I chose to live on campus as it is very convenient that way. You live on campus so you can get to your classes quite quickly so you can wake up later than you could if you lived off campus. Living on campus also makes maintaining a social life easy. The meal plan that you pay for as part of residence fees pays for all of your meals.

I heard from friends that it was one of the best colleges for engineering in Canada, websites that I researched confirmed this so I applied and got accepted quickly. The admission process was simple, they just needed basic information and my grades. I had a 90%+ average in grade 12 so I got in easily.

I have managed my residence by living with a roommate. Every month I pay the rent and he pays for grocery expenses and other useful necessities.

I opted for this university for a chance to be successful in the future and help others.
